Beauty in Pain

"She says, beauty is pain and there's beauty in everything"

~ Inspired by the song: Scars to your Beautiful by Alessia Cara



Often we can't see

The beauty in pain.

Often we can't see

The perspective we might gain.

Often we can't see

Pain fades away.

Often others can't see

Our hearts slowly decay.

Often we see

What we became.

Often it's a journey

Engulfed by flames.

Be patient little one.

The scars will heal in time.

I know it weighs a ton,

But this is the ultimate climb

We often forget about love.

But tend to remember, sadness is contagious.

Often we choose not to see

The hope that comes from above.

Choose love, choose kindness

And be courageous.

I am with you till you cross

Waiting till you find beauty in pain

Nothing could be a bigger loss

Then tying yourself to chain.

So remember not to restrain

And, to find beauty in pain



Song: Scars To Your Beautiful, Alessia Cara, 2016


Foreword:

Alessia Cara’s single “Scars To Your Beautiful” released in 2016 and skyrocketed to mainstream success. However, standing above and beyond the success of the song is its powerful message. The vocals are wonderful however, the lyrics are truly a masterpiece. The upbeat song has a positive message of body positivity and confidence. A message portrayed so wonderfully, that it truly helped me feel confident in my own skin. She focuses on the beauty of our so called 'flaws', showing us just how every mark, every scar and every trauma we have had or experienced has left an impression on us. This impression creates originality and uniqueness in the ever evolving world of beuaty standards. If you haven't heard it, I definitely recommend listening to it.
